Chapter 48
Astrid's POV
I looked into Kaeleen's eyes, seeing the genuine worry etched on his face. He was actually concerned about me. It was a strange feeling, one I wasn't used to.
To be sincere, I wasnt used to many of the things that were hapoening around me. For one this genuine interest in me. The care that these people were showing me. A part of me felt like this was all just a sham and soon enough, they'd reveal their true selves. But another part knew that these people were just this genuine.
"I'm okay, Kaeleen," I said, my voice soft. "I'm actually having a good time."
He searched my face, as if trying to determine if I was telling the truth. I met his gaze, offering him a reassuring smile.
"Really," I insisted. "Everyone here is so welcoming. It's… different."
"Different how?" he asked, his brow furrowing.
I hesitated for a moment, unsure how to explain. How could I make him understand the stark contrast between this pack and the Moonshade pack?
